Just imagine!

A openly gay speaker at their convention.

Brilliant!

I also think Trump as the nominee allow conservative gay people to have someone who represents them. After all, past Rep Presidents were all pretty homophobic.

Yet in a first for a GOP convention, an openly gay speaker acknowledged his sexuality Thursday from the podium -- and put fellow Republicans on the spot by saying he disagreed with parts of the platform. Peter Thiel, the co-founder of PayPal, said only Trump was being honest about how "fake culture wars" distract from America's economic decline.

"Even as Trump declares himself a "friend of the gay community," the GOP platform maintains its opposition to gay marriage and to bathroom choice for transgender people.

I am proud to be gay," Thiel declared. "I am proud to be a Republican. But most of all, I am proud to be an American."

He was greeted with wild cheers and extended applause as some delegations jumped to their feet, in a striking moment for a Republican gathering.


The angle of this Fox News article shows how disgruntled they are about Trump supporting gay people hah!

The Log Cabin Republicans must be excited, as they should be. Though not as thrilled as the day Republicans drop all points from their platform that touch on sexuality. The moral tug of war between the Left and Right is interfering with debate on policies that actually are the purview of government. So much more would be accomplished if they would quit arguing over the physical and geographical attributes of human beings.

Also, smart move for Trump. At least one adviser just earned his or her pay.

The platform remains unchanged, so this is just window dressing.

Their platform this year is the most anti-gay one they have ever had, so I am not holding my breath.

Maybe Flump thinks that he doesn't done enough to wind the people who run the Republicans up quite yet this campaign season, and that's all he can think of that they won't agree with that he hasn't said already?

When Queenie joins the ancestor's and Chuck the Turd is king then shall the Isle of Avalon sink into the abyss. Britannia's children will squabble over what passes for the spoils. The Celts shall leave the Anglo Saxons and the beasts in the East shall be pleased. A new World order full of lies and the old one dies. A people divided that were once so United. A theme oft repeated in nations through time. The ceptured Isles set in a silver sea, no more afternoon tea. The Cricket fields on the village green on sunny summers days, the laughter of children playing, the warm beer in the country pub, the lush green valley's, Historic castles turn to dust, the Church bells are long silent, the sea and airports closed, the railways abandoned,the rivers and Canals drained, satanic mills and factories closed, the big black birds have left the tower, the Royal family as scampered to some last remaining tax haven paradise. Yes Britannia is still open for Business. Empty and grey skies above were once brave young men shot down the evil hun though outnumbered and yes, they won. The shores and the ghosts of celts who once saw off and sent packing the Legions of Rome until a century later Augustus won. From south coast harbours it's ships set sail to trade and wage war against France and Spain. The mist does fall and shroud the hallowed Isles were myth and legend once did abound. Its people are grand without a doubt but it's leaders are bastards that I do shout. Evil men take the credit and good men get nowt. Honours and awards given out like confetti to the parasites about but few if any get awarded to those who true deserve them. A crisis in housing a crisis in health, foreign tongues replace old English and jump the queue, that's line to me and you. Three crosses on a distinct flag shall soon be one as long before once was. Cry God for Harry, England and St George, the lines once written by Shakespeare a Warwickshire County lad. St Andrew and St Patrick have asked for a civil partnership divorce. The land of our father's and red dragon flags, will soon say English out. The Isle of Man in paddies sea, between 3 kingdoms once did be, long independent yet British to a tee. The 5 channel islands off Brittany long independent also, we're a French patois is spoken along with English yokel. 7 party kingdoms themselves from Celtic, Scandinavian and germanic tribes did become one back in the early medieval Times. A new nation that would change the world in so many various ways and most for good. Its language, laws and culture spread about the globe. It had its share of revolutions and civil wars long before the Americans and the French even thought of the concept. Many nations did it create and with it Armies and navies and commerce and trade. Universities, seats of learning among the very first in the world. Through time to the bones of ancestor's who roamed these islands before the sea took the land. The hunter gatherers, the settled farmers, the stone house communities, the ancient hill forts. Those men and women to who forged this nation true and laid the foundations of modern civilization have been betrayed by their kin of today who like midas everything they touch turns to dust. Soccer and Rugby, many other sports to invented by the English and Scotsmen to. Lousy at the sports they invented but past masters at war which they did not invent butshowed the world what Tommy meant. They once stood firm and beat all comments but now turn on themselves. They leave a corrupt bureaucracy were civil servants make the rules and not elected politicians. High salaries and allowances and the jet set lifestyle. Eroding nations sovereignty and making dictate laws. Taking mega bribes and trying to install one unelected dictatorship called the United States of Europe or European Union, a new holy Roman Empire and old Roman empire to reduce the past. We want none of that. We are Seafarers not landlocked. We grade, we don't sit about Plotting grandiose scheme of world domination. The Wester winds and southerlies are replaced by Arctic and Siberia winds of change. Puttin the evil dictator shall be Pleased. The frogs and gerryboys can get on with their masterplan to rob and steal blind. Britannia has taken the overdose of pills and her death is imminent.

He's not wrong. Decreased taxes for the rich, lowering the minimum wage and blocking the border will create a huge shortage of field hands. Basically, a lack of field hands lowers average wages in the region for Americans, especially since farmers are not required to pay minimum wages for crop picking. This means that people coming straight from highschool and college will accept lower wages. And because the middle class competes with these new faces, the middle class will not get raises, if not replaced with cheap labor entirely. And because the young have not been earning wages long or at all, they will think they make good wages because they make more than their friends working minimum wage or farm wages. Small businesses make their money from locals, and because locals make less money, small businesses will lose money. The only ones that will be better off are large companies cutting costs by paying workers less. Remember, Bush senior's campaign called trickle-down theory voodoo economics, but his son made tax breaks and caused the Great Recession. Remember also that Trump would rather hire foreigners and illegals than Americans. It's like Romney sent hundreds of thousands of jobs overseas in private business only to campaign against shipping jobs over seas

Trump is just a narcissistic populist, Greta. He'll simply do and say whatever keeps him in big cheers from his crowd. If he thinks his crowd is hot on giving a small minority a hard time, whatever that minority is, he'll go along with it.

Dizzy, there is a diversity of political opinion among homosexuals. Peter Thiel is just one example. The circles I run with have plenty of homos, and their opinions on the 'GLBT' issues, gay marriage, for example, differ greatly.

Peter Thiel's speech comes across to me as, at its worst, a declaration against (assumed) interest, and as such, strikes me as more reliably representative of his principles, whatever they may be, than of window dressing.

Well, generally speaking, being anti-Islamic is implicitly more gay friendly, since Muslims believe being gay is immoral and a significant percentage support the death penalty for gay sex.

Well they'll get on board because Trump will remind the repubs that after all...gays too, are a profit center.

well he can hardly run on traditional "conservative" values with his past.
Gays are his friends, but not Pences.
I dont care if he has fucked Caitlynn Jenner in the past, his sexuality isnt a problem
he just makes my freakin skin crawl enough to render me asexual.

At least it'll be less traumatic than getting fucked by one of the Republicans with larger hands.
